Answer:
x=3 and y=1
Step-by-step explanation:
subtract equation 2 from 1
then (2x+3y) -(2x+y) =9-7
2x-2x+3y-y =2
2y=2 therefore y=1
substitute y value in 2x+y=7
2x+1=7
2x=7-1
2x=6
x=3
To solve this problem, you will first want to convert 5 pounds into ounces. To do this, first determine how many ounces is in 1 pound.
There are 16 ounces in 1 pound, so to convert 5 pounds into ounces, you simply have to multiply 5 × 16. This will give you 80 ounces total.
Allie give 12 ounces away, so you must first subtract 12 ounces from your total (80 ounces). 80 - 12 gives us 68 ounces.
Allie then divides the trail mix up into 4 ounce portions. To figure out how many small bags she can make, you simply divide your new total (68 ounces) by 4.
68 ÷ 4 = 17
Allie made 17 small bags.
Just multiply the sum of the numbers then divide
It cant be converted into a mixed number because it has no whole.
